F1 Academy

Develops talent.

A structured pathway for the women already racing. Backed by every Formula 1 team. Where careers are made on the grid.

G.I.R.L.

Opens the door.

Race events, community, and visibility for girls who have never sat in a kart. We do not develop drivers. We help girls discover the world is for them too.

From the founder

“F1 Academy has given me an incredible opportunity I don't take for granted. I carry it with pride and a real sense of responsibility. I want to show the next generation of girls that motorsport is theirs. As drivers, engineers, mechanics, or whatever they dream of becoming.”

Alba Larsen, Founder of G.I.R.L.

The next girl already exists. She just has not found the door yet.
